Supply chain management (SCM)is the process of planning,

implementing, and controlling 

the operations of the supply chain

as efficiently as possible.

Supply Chain Management spans

all movement and storage of raw

materials, work-in-process

inventory, and finished goods

from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption.

Supply Chain Synchronisation is

becoming the most important way to

develop higher levels of supply chain

competitive advantage.

To achieve the highest level of supply

chain synchronization benefit, you must

address eight different dimensions of the supply chain.

Educate the people. Explain in simple terms what

synchronization is, what it intends to achieve, how it intends to

achieve it and what their part is in it.

Continue direct communication throughout the project to help

develop linkages between employees of participating firms.

Facilitate about data and ongoing communication is critical to

ensure product, ordering and systems information are correctly

updated to support the coordinated scheduling.

Develop the supply chain schedule Have realistic expectations

Map the current process

Allow for variances

Err on the safe side

Overlay volume and density information

Inform the participants

Collecting data is streamlining the process to minimizeadditional work.

Data collection should be a by product of the supplychain process, not activity unto itself.

Order Timing – Map and understand current supply chain

flows and timings by developing a new, optimized supplychain synchronization model.

Unitization - taking production at the locations and rates it

is most efficient to take it, without disruption of the

scheme by the legal rights inhering in competing

properties

This is partially completed by the barcode symbology

(or RFID in advanced cases) and the purchase order. These two key data streams can be easily integrated

into the supply chain synchronization processes.

Collect information about each exception for

monitoring and improvement purposes

Exceptions should be manageable to prevent flaws in

the information used to build the synchronized system

The base level of service required is

to determine the required service

level or delivery lead time that is

acceptable

Once this determination is made,

transportation mode and optimal

load mix density will be selected

Rules and methods for ongoing adjustment and

optimization of the process should be defined Integrate the ability to switch to varying size and

capacity of containers

Careful monitoring of these optimization opportunities

will make the appropriate timing for such initiatives

readily apparent

Operations Planning is a process where the executives of an

organization gather monthly to review previous performance

against plans and if necessary create new plans.

The input to the process is the forecast and the output of the

S&OP is the production plan, the demand plan, as well as the

many other plans that are derived from these.

The objective of Operations Planning is to arrive at a business

"Game Plan" to help manage and allocate critical resources to

meet the needs of the customer at the least cost to do so.

S&OP works on pre-agreed Key Performance Indicators. It helps

the Managers to identify the area for improvements through

these KPI and track the plan vs. actual performance.

Improved customer service

Reduced inventory

Lower manufacturing & distribution costs

Better control of overall business

performance

Increased team work within and across

functions

Supply Chain tends to focus on purchasing and

procurement, but not necessarily so. It can

include materials, inventory, and production

planning.15
